Is it normal to kiss, cuddle or hold hands on the first date, and what does kissing, holding hands or cuddling mean to you?

[Jjpayne]

Is kissing, cuddling and holding hands just a normal part of dating or is it a sign to you of something deeper and more meaningful?

If it is not the first date, at which date number would be the time to kiss, cuddle or hold hands?

[Accidental_Genius]

I did hold hands on the first day but it wasn't my plan to do that! It just happened! And then we rubbed our hands together for a little bit... but there was no kissing! I dont think thats normal on the first date! But Ikissed her on second date! Which happened because she prefered things to go fast and we started cuddling and I ended up kissing her without any regrets! I guess it depends on the girl and what type of relationship she prefers!

Holding hands sure, cuddling no but a hug us fine. Kissing just a good night kiss.

[BlackRoseFairy]

If I was on a first date with a guy and he reached for my hand I'd take it as a good sign... now cuddling depends on how you interpret it. Is it cuddling if he puts an arm around your shoulders while you walk and pulls you closer? Or does it have to be a strong hug? I'd be ok with the first but would certainly feel weird in the second case...
Kissing, yeah if there's a chemistry... why not?

Thanks for MHO

[Jjpayne]

You are welcome!! :)

Depends on what kind of kiss hugs fine, however i find cuddling to be a more intimate for first date, personally.

[Logorithim]

I wouldn't say normal, but it's not that unusual.

[Imcmullan]

So many people are saying this is not normal- YES IT IS... RARE is a better word... ... that's when there is passion n extreme attraction to your significant other. My boyfriend n I fell in love the first day we hung out... and there was hugging, kissing, cuddling... ... then I've dated some where we grew to that point.

I’d rather not kiss but I like the other stuff its sweet

I hate when guys are too cool for school to hold hands and squeamish to hug, but have no problem mouth raping you with their tongue. Pass. 🤢

[Wowgirl30q]

Mouth raping😂

[VIVANT]

... hmm it doesn’t “ mean” anything to me other than a good sign that they don’t mind non sexual touch which is important to me... otherwise, it’s just pleasant physically , as I’m very tactile. It’s not symbolic of our love or anything on a first date 😁😁

Also I wouldn’t be doing this with a stranger I only date friends.

[DizzyDesii]

Yes and it means we’re making it official. Im looking forwards to Vegas

[StingRayxoxo]

Not usually on a first date.

[StingRayxoxo]

It truly varies for me. I actually would be okay with a hug right away. The rest just depends on how well we feel comfortable together

[PrincessGrail]

I do all those things

[needhelp777]

It means that I am wanted and that I am safe in his arms and that I am loved for who I am and etc

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes , it's fine with me if that's what happens between me and girl when we meet.

[adolescentswede]

It fundamentally mean you're comftorble being intimate.

[Secretgardenblood]

I never agreed kissing one hug or cuddle etc etc. Before marriage

[Secretgardenblood]

@animus1988 i didn't mk!

[Lance1965]

That is rare on a first date. Maybe a goodnight kiss if the date goes well.

[Wowgirl30q]

It means I'm on the way slowly to sleep with you

[Wowgirl30q]

I do all those things too @princessgrail
@stingrayxoxo is very prude for a vagician

[PrincessGrail]

I’m sure @stingrayxoxo makes up for lost time when she’s ready...

[Wowgirl30q]

@PrincessGrail I don't know what she does but it works 😁

[PrincessGrail]

She’s slippery when wet... but not on the first date 😂

[Wowgirl30q]

@PrincessGrail 😂😂😂😂

[StingRayxoxo]

Y'all are some f***ers! LOL

[StingRayxoxo]

I just can't let someone touch me until I know them. I sure do make up for lost time.

[Wowgirl30q]

@princessgrail she's a sure bet for next month

[PrincessGrail]

I’m sure you’ll both be having fun tonight. But I’ll make up for lost time tomorrow night 😍 (and maybe Sat too).

[themomo84]

I think it's a little bit too much for a first date.

[Sofie1979]

Kiss on Cheek on the first date no cuddling don’t start until I have complete trust in the person.

[omgjassy]

Not really normal but whatever floats their boat

[ChiTown33]

It all depends on the party involved

[Grond21]

I wait on those things till it is serious

[ChiPaPa]

Holding hands would be nice.

[LuWe22]

No. That's for a relationship.
